After thinking for a moment, Chen Yao said, "Now that we know the reason, perhaps we can hold a salvation ceremony to resolve their resentment. But this requires finding some special items as the medium for the ceremony."
Lin Yu nodded and said, "Okay, let's do as Shen Yao said. Ouyang, you and Shen Yao continue to study the sarcophagus and diary here to see if you can find more clues and determine what special items are needed. I'll go look elsewhere in the building to see if I can find anything useful." Lin Yu knew that time was running out and a solution must be found as soon as possible, otherwise the evil forces in the building might erupt again.
Lin Yu left the basement alone and began to search the building. The corridor was still filled with a gloomy atmosphere, and every corner seemed to hide unknown dangers. He walked forward cautiously, carefully observing everything around him.
When he reached a room on the second floor, he found some old sacrificial items placed there. These items were engraved with strange symbols, somewhat similar to the runes on the sarcophagus. Lin Yu was delighted, thinking that these might be the special items they needed.
Just as he was about to pick up the sacrificial items, the door suddenly slammed shut. The temperature in the room dropped instantly, and Lin Yu's breath turned into white mist. He looked around warily and found a vague figure in the corner of the room.
The figure gradually became clearer. It was an old man in ragged clothes, his eyes filled with resentment and anger. "You shouldn't have come here. The wronged spirits here won't let you go!" The old man's voice was low and hoarse, as if it came from the Nine Netherworld.
Lin Yu took a deep breath and said, "Old man, we know the tragedy that happened here. We are here to help everyone get relief. Please trust us." Lin Yu tried to explain their purpose to the old man, hoping to gain his trust.
The old man sneered and said, "Liberation? How easy is that? Over the years, countless people have tried to solve the mystery here, but all have failed. You are no exception." The old man's eyes revealed a hint of disdain and despair.
Lin Yu said firmly: "We are different. We have determination and ability. We already know the truth of that year and have found some clues. Please tell us how we can help everyone." Lin Yu's eyes were full of sincerity and determination. He hoped to impress the old man and get more information.
The old man was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "To appease the resentment of the wronged souls, in addition to holding a salvation ceremony, we also need to find the relics of the victims from that year as a bridge to connect with their souls. Only then can they feel our sincerity and be willing to accept salvation."
Lin Yu nodded and said, "Thank you, old man. We will definitely find the remains of the victims."
The old man's figure gradually disappeared, and the door of the room slowly opened. Lin Yu picked up the sacrificial items and continued to search the building for the victim's remains.
At the same time, Ouyang Zhenghao and Shen Yao carefully studied the sarcophagus and diary in the basement and made a new discovery. They found that the diary mentioned a secret place that might contain important clues related to the victim.
"After Lin Yu comes back, let's go to this secret place together. Maybe we can find the relics we need." Chen Yao said, with a hint of expectation in her eyes.
After a while, Lin Yu returned to the basement and told Ouyang Zhenghao and Shen Yao about his encounter with the old man and the discovery of the sacrificial supplies.
"It seems that we are getting closer and closer to the truth. Once we find the relics, we can hold a salvation ceremony to completely resolve the crisis in this building." Ouyang Zhenghao said, his eyes full of hope.
After a short rest, the three of them followed the clues in the diary and headed to the secret location. They didn't know what was waiting for them, but they were full of firm belief in their hearts, and they must uncover the final mystery and restore peace to the building.
As they approached the secret location, the atmosphere grew increasingly eerie. An oppressive atmosphere hung in the air, as if countless pairs of eyes were watching them from the shadows. The lights in the hallway began to flicker, sometimes bright, sometimes dim, as if they would go out at any moment.
Finally, they arrived at the secret location. It was a small room hidden behind a wall, filled with a number of dilapidated boxes. Lin Yu walked over and opened one of the boxes, discovering it was filled with various relics, including photos, letters, and jewelry. These relics were engraved with the names of the victims, and each one carried a tragic history.
"Found it! These are the relics we need." Lin Yu said excitedly, his eyes full of joy and relief.
Ouyang Zhenghao and Shen Yao also gathered around, looking at these relics, their hearts filled with emotion. "These poor people finally have a chance to rest in peace." Shen Yao said, her eyes revealing a hint of sympathy and relief.
The three returned to the basement with sacrificial offerings and the victim's belongings. They began preparing for a salvation ceremony, hoping to resolve the resentment of the wronged souls and resolve the crisis in the building.
The salvation ceremony is about to begin. Can they successfully dispel all the evil and resentment and restore peace to this cursed building? Everything is still unknown...
